Thank you for your assistance John. I am still having troubles though. One

text field clears, while the other two will not. The variables within the

text fields are all local so I am beginning to think this is a bug in

Flash. My action for the "Clear" button is:


On (Release)

      Remove Movie Clip ("/NewLoader")

      Set Variable: "filename" = ""

      Set Variable: "/NewLoader/:dancetune" = ""

      Set Variable: "/NewLoader/:numsteps" = ""

End On



The last two are the ones that will not clear. Any ideas?
